This is the point–of–view of Environmental–Terror–Organizations across Canada and the United States that HATE AND DESPISE the GOLF INDUSTRY.

√ FACT : The leading Environmental–Terror–Organizations, the ones that are already conspiring to impose prohibitionist policies on the Modern PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY in every Province across Canada, have publicly stated, in one form or another, that they DO NOT WANT ANY PROHIBITION EXCEPTIONS pertaining to pest control products for the GOLF INDUSTRY.

The Contemptible and Radical Canadian–Cancer–Society

Here are some examples of statements from the Contemptible and Radical Canadian–Cancer–Society :

<< The Canadian–Cancer–Society is very concerned about the use of potential carcinogens for the purposes of enhancing the appearance of lawns and gardens, as well as parks, recreational facilities, and GOLF COURSES. We base this concern on the conclusions of the International Agency for Research on Cancer, which state that some substances used in pesticides are classified as known, probable, or possible carcinogens. >>

<< According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), pesticides contain substances that are known, probable or possible carcinogens. But while scientific evidence linking exposure to pesticides with increased cancer risk is inconclusive, it is suggestive and growing. Canadian–Cancer–Society believes that in light of the potential for harm and the lack of health benefit, pesticide bans should be implemented for residential lawns and gardens, as well as recreational spaces, such as parks and GOLF COURSES. >>

√ FACT : We are now living in THE ERA OF 9/11 OF THE Green Space Industry (including the GOLF INDUSTRY).

√ FACT : The conspiracy to prohibit pest control products has now attained NATIONAL proportions in Canada.

● WARNING : The provinces are toppling like dominoes.

√ FACT : The Modern PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY is being systematically annihilated across Canada.

The Golf Industry Refuses to Act

√ FACT : The prohibitionist maniacs in the Environmental–Terror–Movement have VIRTUALLY LIMITLESS GOVERNMENT AND PRIVATE FUNDS to wreak their havoc, and they understand full well that THERE IS NO UNITY within the Green Space Industry.

First municipal, then provincial, and finally national in scope, their first destructive round of attacks will be complete within one or two years. And then. Soon after the Environmental–Terror–Movement has tasted victory by obliterating the PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY, the hated GOLF INDUSTRY will be targeted in the next round of attacks. This time, the GOLF INDUSTRY will be totally alone, and devoid of any allies to help defend itself.

The GOLF INDUSTRY, because of its attitude of denial and protectionism and mock–dismay at any form of criticism, is ignoring the supreme historic opportunity to join forces with the PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY, and litigate against the forces of ENVIRONMENTAL EVIL. A failure to do so will be lethal and final, and future generations will ask the question ― WHY DID YOU NOT ACT ?

For the first time in modern history, it can honestly be said that there is NO LONGER A HOPEFUL FUTURE for anyone employed in the Green Space Industry, (or the GOLF INDUSTRY), young or old.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The Golf Industry Will LOSE Its Exception Status

● WARNING : Despite the golf course EXCEPTION STATUS in several jurisdictions across Canada, Force Of Nature will nevertheless repeat its warning to the GOLF INDUSTRY.

● WARNING : The GOLF INDUSTRY should not feel too smug about its exception from either the Ontario or the Quebec prohibition.

Government conditions will be attached to this exception, and these conditions will soon grow exponentially and become increasingly unreasonable.

The Golf Industry EXCEPTION STATUS will be ENTIRELY REVOKED within two to four years.

The ONLY long–term hope for the GOLF INDUSTRY is a strong coalition with the rest of the Green Space Industry that utterly opposes Enviro–Maniac–Activists and their political allies.

The depraved indifference of Enviro–Maniac–Activists , also known as Environmentalists, have led to TERRORIZE, HARM, and THREATEN and terror against the Green Space Industry through the conspiracy of crazed and maniacal Environmental social policies, such as prohibiting FEDERALLY LEGAL, SCIENTIFICALLY SAFE, TOTALLY IRREPLACEABLE, and ABSOLUTELY INDISPENSABLE conventional pest control products. They are MODERN and GREATLY EFFECTIVE when compared to most DISAPPOINTINGLY INEFFECTIVE and STUNNINGLY EXPENSIVE BOGUS Green Alternatives favoured by IGNORANT Enviro–Maniac–Activists. Many of the BOGUS Green Alternatives are supplied by the very Environmental–Terror–Organizations that sought prohibition.

The Looming Golf Industry Shipwreck !

NO Prohibition Exception for Golf !

The leading environmentalterror organizations,the ones conspiring toinflict prohibitionist policiesin every Province across Canada,have publicly stated,in one form or another, that theyDO NOT WANT ANYPROHIBITION EXCEPTIONpertaining to pest control productsfor the GOLF INDUSTRY.

● Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment (C.A.P.E.) ― NO PROHIBITION EXCEPTION FOR GOLF

The Modern PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY is systematically being TERRORIZED and ANNIHILATED by Enviro–Maniac–Activists, with the resulting LOSS OF REVENUES, BUSINESS FAILURES, BANKRUPTCY, and UNEMPLOYMENT, inflicting TERROR, DESPAIR, and DESTITUTION on THOUSANDS of hapless victims throughout the Green Space Industry.

● WARNING : the GOLF INDUSTRY is NEXT !

We are now living in The Era of 9/11 of the Green Space Industry. The conspiracy to prohibit pest control products has now attained national proportions. The provinces are toppling like dominoes. The PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY is being systematically annihilated across Canada. The Enviro–Maniac–Activists have virtually limitless government and private funds to wreak their havoc, and they understand full well that there is no unity within the Green Space Industry. First municipal, then provincial, and finally national in scope, their first destructive round of attacks will soon be complete. And then ... soon after the Enviro–Maniac–Activists have tasted victory by obliterating the PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY, the HATED GOLF INDUSTRY will be targeted in the next round of attacks. This time, the GOLF INDUSTRY will be totally alone, and devoid of any allies to help defend itself.

The GOLF INDUSTRY leadership, because of its attitude of denial and protectionism and mock–dismay at any form of criticism, is ignoring the supreme historic opportunity to join forces with the PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY, and litigate against the evil Enviro–Maniac–Activists. A failure to do so will be lethal and final, and future generations will ask the question ─ Why did you not act ?. For the first time in all of our collective history, it can be said that there is NO LONGER A HOPEFUL FUTURE for those employed in the Green Space Industry ( including the GOLF INDUSTRY ).

The GOLF INDUSTRY currently enjoys a Prohibition Exception Status in several jurisdictions. This status will likely be entirely revoked within a few years because of the Golf Industry failure to address issues.

The GOLF INDUSTRY is in a VULNERABLE position regarding pest control products. Both the GOLF INDUSTRY and the Modern PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY use the SAME ingredients that are needed to control insect and weed pests. In fact, PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE maintenance requires LESS PESTICIDE–INPUTS than GOLF COURSE turf. The GOLF INDUSTRY enjoys the benefits from a Prohibition Exception Status despite the fact that it uses the VERY SAME INGREDIENTS employed in PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE maintenance.

Enviro–Maniac–Activists are already alleging that the so–called threat to health and environment posed by PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE is EQUAL or HIGHER on the golf course, especially with women and juniors. Of course, this alleged threat is a MYTH ! If it is safe to walk and play on a pesticide–treated golf course putting green, it is also safe to walk on a pesticide–treated lawn.

The GOLF INDUSTRY has defended its Exception Status on the basis that the need for high–quality playing conditions supersedes cosmetic standards, especially if INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT ( I.P.M. ) is used. Again, the Golf Industry is vulnerable on several issues.

The PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE Industry used I.P.M. and failed to defend itself from prohibitionist policies. Furthermore, it will be increasingly difficult for the GOLF INDUSTRY to defend its Exception Status on the need for high–quality playing conditions, especially since ALL pest control products, including those used on the golf course, represent a perceived threat to health and environment.

Besides, Enviro–Maniac–Activists have traditionally preferred junk lawns and junk landscapes that are unaltered by human activity, and are infested with weeds, insects, and disease pests. They HATE and DESPISE the GOLF INDUSTRY, and they are particularly opposed to the « cosmetic » standards that golf courses REPRESENT, which are arbitrarily considered too lofty and unnecessary.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Enviro–Maniac–ActivistsHATE and DESPISEthe Golf Industry !

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

In the year 2020 ...

● Green Alternatives will FAIL to control pests of turf.

● The playing conditions at ALL golf facilities will become DISMAL.

● The labour needed for maintenance will be STAGGERING.

● Only the VERY RICH ELITE golfer will be able to afford to play golf.

● Up to seventy per cent of golfers will ABANDON the sport.

● All golf clubs will be considered as WORTHLESS investments.

● No one will be able to buy or sell a golf facility. Owners will be FRANTIC.

● Owners will NO LONGER be able to AFFORD to pay the property taxes.

● Sixty per cent of all golf clubs will CLOSE DOWN or go BANKRUPT.

● Superintendents will NO LONGER BE NECESSARY OR NEEDED.

● The Multi–Billion–Dollar–Golf–Industry will be ANNIHILATED.

● Large numbers of golf courses will be ABANDONED as WASTE DUMPS.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The Golf Industry Must Immediately Address Sixteen Critical Issues

● WARNING : Regardless of its Exception Status in many jurisdictions, the GOLF INDUSTRY faces some huge challenges because of its HIGH DEGREE OF VULNERABILITY concerning several public affairs issues. In order to successfully deter the malicious prohibition efforts of Enviro–Maniac–Activists, the GOLF INDUSTRY must immediately address the following sixteen critical issues.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

1. The GOLF INDUSTRY must CEASE focusing on the ineffective Integrated Pest Management ( I.P.M. ) strategies as the solution to its public affairs problems. Unfortunately, INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT has been DESIGNED and DOCTORED to be applicable to the AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY, and NOT the Green Space Industry.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

2. The GOLF INDUSTRY must publicly DIVULGE to the public ALL scientific information that ascertains that its chemicals are definitely « minimum–risk » or « reduced–risk ».

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

3. The GOLF INDUSTRY must publicly DENOUNCE the so–called Green Alternatives to conventional pest control products as BOGUS, and the biological–natural–organic methods, as almost INEFFECTIVE and NON–EXISTENT. Many of the BOGUS Green Alternatives are supplied by the very Environmental–Terror–Organizations that sought prohibition.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

4. The GOLF INDUSTRY must CREATE a FULLY TRANSPARENT database for right–to–know information concerning its chemicals.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

5. The GOLF INDUSTRY must directly and actively SUPPORT LITIGATION launched against those Enviro–Maniac–Activists that have conspired to prohibit FEDERALLY LEGAL, SCIENTIFICALLY SAFE, TOTALLY IRREPLACEABLE, and ABSOLUTELY INDISPENSABLE pest control products, and cease being a mere casual observer.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

6. The GOLF INDUSTRY must explain why some of its chemicals are prohibited by other nations, but not in Canada, and cease its wasteful « Wag The Dog » policies on irrelevant issues such as saving quintozene.

Background Information from an Independent Perspective ─ In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency ( E.P.A. ) concluded that the risks when using quintozene were substantial from an environmental standpoint. The E.P.A. concluded that the re–registration of quintozene was acceptable provided that ALL TURF USES WERE TERMINATED. In view of the many questions concerning the safety of quintozene, it would seem preferable that the Golf Industry withdraw its petition in support of this ingredient. Moreover, by defending a product associated with serious health, environmental, and turf phyto–toxicity issues, the Golf Industry has weakened its credibility. The Pest Management Regulatory Agency of Health Canada ( P.M.R.A. ) will follow with the same decision as the E.P.A., by prohibiting the sale of quintozene beyond 2010, and prohibiting the use of quintozene beyond 2011. The Manufacturing Industry WILL NOT defend quintozene. Furthermore, the Manufacturing Industry will NO LONGER invest in ANY pest control products in Canada, since it abhors operating in markets made UNSTABLE by TERRORISM, whether political or Environmental.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

7. The GOLF INDUSTRY must VIGOROUSLY EMBARK on a massive PUBLIC RELATIONS CAMPAIGN to stop the proposed scheme by Enviro–Maniac–Activists and NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC PARTY OF CANADA threatening a NATIONAL prohibition of pest control products. N.D.P. is the political shield for the Environmental–Terror–Movement.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

8. The GOLF INDUSTRY must review and justify its current and extensive array of chemicals.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

9. The GOLF INDUSTRY must plan for the INEVITABLE and TOTAL REVOCATION of its EXCEPTION STATUS in most jurisdictions across Canada, in two to four years. The GOLF INDUSTRY will lose many or ALL of its valued and necessary pest control products.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

10. The GOLF INDUSTRY must provide the public with scientific information supporting the idea that its innovative management practices MAY SLIGHTLY reduce the use of pest control products.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

11. The GOLF INDUSTRY must develop and publish golf MAINTENANCE PROTOCOLS and PERFORMANCE STANDARDS that are EXPECTED by its playing customers. So far, the GOLF INDUSTRY has been ridiculously inconsistent in defining « suitable playing surfaces ». ». If it does not do so, lay–people such as the Environmental–Maniac–Activists will step in and design these standards and protocols for the industry. The GOLF INDUSTRY appears to be more worried about a set of protocols for the implementation of the INEFFECTIVE INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT rather than focus on what its playing customers really want ... high–quality playing conditions.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

12. The GOLF INDUSTRY must SCIENTIFICALLY DEFINE and PUBLICALLY DISCREDIT the misleading term « Organic Golf Course », and establish policies for expelling clubs using this INACCURATE and MISLEADING term from its trade associations.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

13. The GOLF INDUSTRY must STRONGLY ADDRESS and DISCREDIT the misconceptions concerning IMIDACLOPRID, CHLOROTHALONIL, 2,4–D, and other chemicals.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

14. The GOLF INDUSTRY must TERMINATE all relationships with Environmental–Terror–Organizations like Contemptible–CANADIAN–CANCER–SOCIETY, WORLD WILDLIFE FUND, and others. All related charitable tournaments that provide financial donations and support to these Environmental–Terror–Organizations must be SUSPENDED and REDIRECTED.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

15. The GOLF INDUSTRY must OPPOSE the LOATHSOME and RIDICULOUS Golf Canada ( formerly R.C.G.A. ) that raises millions of dollars for the Contemptible and Radical Canadian–Cancer–Society , an Environmental–Terror–Organization that uses this PROFIT in its conspiracy to prohibit of FEDERALLY LEGAL, SCIENTIFICALLY SAFE, TOTALLY IRREPLACEABLE, and ABSOLUTELY INDISPENSABLE conventional pest control products.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

16. The GOLF INDUSTRY must openly and financially SUPPORT POLITICAL CANDIDATES that oppose any prohibition of pest control products.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Golf Canada (R.C.G.A.) Is A Major Financial Contributor To Environmental–Terrorism

In 2009, the LOATHSOME and RIDICULOUS Royal CANADIAN GOLF ASSOCIATION ( now called Golf Canada ) raised over EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS for the Contemptible and Radical Canadian–Cancer–Society , an Environmental–Terror–Organization that seeks the prohibition of FEDERALLY LEGAL, SCIENTIFICALLY SAFE, TOTALLY IRREPLACEABLE, and ABSOLUTELY INDISPENSABLE conventional pest control products. The Contemptible and Radical Canadian–Cancer–Society has set its sights on annihilating the GOLF INDUSTRY !

Unbelievably, the Contemptible and Radical Canadian–Cancer–Society is the Official Charity of R.C.G.A. Golf Fore the Cure

THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE.

It is the DUTY of Golf Canada to STOP Environmental–Terror against the GOLF INDUSTRY !

Incredibly, the Golf Canada supplies millions of GOLF INDUSTRY dollars to C.C.S. that is then used to support the spread of Environmental–Terror against the Green Space Industry.

Furthermore, the Contemptible and Radical Canadian–Cancer–Society has indicated that it will TERRORIZE the GOLF INDUSTRY NEXT.

Golf Canada must immediately stop its financial support of Environmental–Terror, and consequently terminate ALL relationships with Environmental–Terror–Organizations like the Contemptible and Radical Canadian–Cancer–Society, World Wildlife Fund, and others, and suspend all related charitable tournaments and programs that provide financial donations and support to these organizations.

On September 20th 2001, in an address to a joint session of Congress following the 9/11 attacks, U.S. President George W. Bush made the following inspirational statement. ─

<< Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists. >>

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The Beginning of the End of the Golf Industry Exception

DECEMBER 2nd 2009 marks THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF THE GOLF INDUSTRY EXCEPTION STATUS IN CANADA, thanks to the INEPTITUDE of the GOLF INDUSTRY leadership.

As of DECEMBER 2nd 2009, the Government of Prince Edward Island [ P.E.I. ] has stopped short of proposing a total prohibition of pest control products. So–called controversial ingredients, such as 2,4–D, would still be allowed for use by the GOLF INDUSTRY, but Prince Edward Island has indicated that the Golf exception status will eventually be REVOKED .

Here is what the Government of Prince Edward Island is saying ―

<< We're allowing it on golf courses because it's a major industry for P.E.I. and we're working towards getting off it. >>

<< What we're basically saying is you [ the Golf Industry ]better find a way to get off it over the next couple of years. >>

Prohibitionist–Enviro–Maniac–Government–Officials in many jurisdictions across Canada want to SPECIFICALLY ENSURE that the GOLF INDUSTRY NO LONGER benefits from ANY exceptions to any legislation prohibiting pest control products.

Prohibitionist–Enviro–Maniac–Government–Officials understand full well that THERE IS NO UNITY within the Green Space Industry.

Soon after the taste of victory with the obliteration the Modern PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY in many jurisdictions across Canada, it was just a matter of time before the hated GOLF INDUSTRY was specifically targeted in the next round of attacks. Now, the GOLF INDUSTRY is totally alone, and devoid of any allies to help defend itself.

When prohibition was imposed in the Province of Ontario, the leadership of the GOLF INDUSTRY, because of its attitude of denial and protectionism and mock–dismay at any form of criticism, refused to join forces with the PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY, and litigate against the forces of Environmental–Terror.

Prohibitionist–Enviro–Maniac–Government–Officials are NO LONGER intimidated by the obviously weak and impotent GOLF INDUSTRY, which is now beginning to LOSE its TOTAL exception status in the Province of Prince Edward Island.

Across Canada, the Golf Industry exception status will be ENTIRELY REVOKED within two to four years.

Observers are particularly disappointed with Canadian Golf Superintendents Association (C.G.S.A.). This trade association has yet again failed its members. Instead, it prefers to Wag The Dog by generating pointless policy papers, and by addressing irrelevant issues such as « saving » quintozene.

The fault is not just with C.G.S.A.

Here are examples of all those who have FAILED the GOLF INDUSTRY so far ...

The highest grade of « failure » must be given to LOATHSOME and RIDICULOUS Golf Canada for its programs that provide financial support to Environmental–Terror–Organizations, such as those that are influencing events in Prince Edward Island.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

N.G.C.O.A. Avoids Dealing With Terror

According to National Golf Course Owners Association Canada, its members don’t realize how valuable a unified voice representing the entire GOLF INDUSTRY can be.

N.G.C.O.A. claims to have made advocacy on behalf of all of its members a major priority, and has indicated that it will dedicate resources and time to « fighting the good fight » for the protection of the interests of our members.

A grade of « failure » must be given to N.G.C.O.A. since its so–called advocacy has not addressed the threat of the Environmental–Terror–Organizations.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

WARNING :

Once Prohibitionist–Enviro–Maniac–Government–Officials in Prince Edward Island are successful in TOTALLY REVOKING the GOLF INDUSTRY exception ...

... once other Canadian jurisdictions realize that it can easily inflict Environmental–Terror on the GOLF INDUSTRY with little or no resistance, it will then proceed to assault and rape the GOLF INDUSTRY on a larger scale.

After the RAPE, ASSAULT, and TERROR against GOLF INDUSTRY in the Province of Prince Edward Island ...

Environmental–Terror will continue to spread to ...

― the remaining Atlantic Provinces.

― and then the Province of Ontario.

― the Province of Quebec.

― and then British Columbia.

― and then the Prairie Provinces.

DECEMBER 2nd 2009 marks the beginning of the end of the GOLF INDUSTRY exception status in Canada. Environmental–Terror NEVER ends, but neither does the ineptitude of the GOLF INDUSTRY leadership, that DOES NOT DESERVE to operate a MULTI–BILLION DOLLAR GOLF INDUSTRY.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The Golf Industry in Canada Will Lose its Multi–Billion Dollar Industry !

There is so much to lose !

According to « The Economic Impact Study Of Golf For Canada » conducted by National Allied Golf Associations ...

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Golf Industry Highlights

Based on a nation–wide survey of more than 4,000 golfers and 350 golf courses in 10 provinces and three territories, « The Economic Impact Study Of Golf For Canada » has provided the first comprehensive and independent assessment of the economic impact of the GOLF INDUSTRY in Canada.

This study provides new quantitative evidence of the economic significance of the sport to the Canadian, provincial and territorial economies, through primary research augmented by secondary information sources.

The results of the study demonstrate the substantial role golf has in the economy of Canada in terms of the GOLF INDUSTRY’s « Gross Domestic Product » in Canada ― including all goods and services that are directly and indirectly related to the game, with analysis of who benefits from golf, and to what extent; and other spin–off economic impacts such as employment and household income at the national, provincial and territorial scales.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Economic Impact of Golf for Canada

The game of golf accounts for an estimated 11.3 billion dollars of Canada’s Gross Domestic Product which includes :

341,794 jobs

7.6 billion dollars in household income

1.2 billion dollars in property and other indirect taxes

1.9 billion dollars in income taxes

The GOLF INDUSTRY in Canada generates an estimated 29.4 billion dollars in total gross production through direct, indirect, and induced spending impacts.

The total direct economic activity (total direct sales) resulting from the GOLF INDUSTRY in Canada is estimated at 13.6 billion dollars.

Of this total, the revenues generated directly by golf courses and their facilities and standalone driving and practice ranges (4.7 billion dollars) rivals the revenues generated by all other participation sports and recreation facilities combined (4.8 billion dollars) in Canada.

Additional key benefits and impact of the GOLF INDUSTRY in Canada include ...

Golf Participation – The study estimates that approximately 70 million rounds of golf were played in 2008, a level of play that was as much as 10 per cent lower than the average number of rounds based on prior years.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

According to IPSOS Reid, there are an estimated 6 million Canadian golfers.

According to Royal Canadian Golf Association, Canadian golf participation rates are among the highest in the world.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Employment Opportunities – The Canadian GOLF INDUSTRY provides an excellent employment opportunity, with as many as 43 per cent of those employed at Canadian golf courses being students.

Estimated Impact on Property Values – The location of houses adjacent to golf courses provides benefits to homeowners that stem from higher home values compared to similar homes that are not adjacent to courses. The total incremental impact on home values is estimated at $1.4 billion.

Charitable Activity – Each year there are at least 25,000 charitable events hosted at Canadian courses. Using conservative estimates, these events raise more than 439 million dollars for charitable causes across Canada.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Sadly, a large portion the Golf Industry’s

charitable donations supports

Environmental–Terror–Organizations

that will conspire towards annihilation

of the Green Space Industry.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Golf Tourism – Canadian travellers make more than 1 million trips involving golf, spending an estimated 1.9 billion dollars annually on golf–related travel within Canada.

Aside from households, which command more that 25 per cent of the gross economic effects of golf, Canada’s manufacturing sector is impacted the most by Canadian golf related expenditures, commanding 13 per cent of Golf’s gross economic impacts in Canada. This is followed by the finance, insurance and real estate services and retail trade sectors.

From many perspectives the game of Golf is a significant contributor to the economies of each Province and for Canada overall.

However, there is ...

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

THE LOOMING SHIPWRECK OF THE GOLF INDUSTRY !

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Once Environmental–Terror–Organizations are done annihilating the PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY, the GOLF INDUSTRY is NEXT ! Sadly, a large portion the GOLF INDUSTRY’s charitable donations supports Environmental–Terror–Organizations that will conspire towards annihilation of this industry.

For example, in 2009, the LOATHSOME and RIDICULOUS Golf Canada alone raised over EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS for the Contemptible and Radical Canadian–Cancer–Society , an Environmental–Terror–Organization that seeks the prohibition of FEDERALLY LEGAL, SCIENTIFICALLY SAFE, TOTALLY IRREPLACEABLE, and ABSOLUTELY INDISPENSABLE conventional pest control products. The Contemptible and Radical Canadian–Cancer–Society has set its sights on annihilating the GOLF INDUSTRY !

The GOLF INDUSTRY must terminate all relationships with Environmental organizations like the Contemptible and Radical Canadian–Cancer–Society, World Wildlife Fund, and others, and suspend all related charitable tournaments that provide financial donations and support to these organizations.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The Golf Industry must act NOW !

William H. Gathercole and Norah G

National Organization Responding Against Huje that TERRORIZE, HARM, and THREATEN the Green Space Industry (NORAHG)

Force Of Nature is a series of e–newsletters destined for the Green Space Industry, the Environmental Terror Movement, Governments, and the Media, nationwide across Canada, the United States, and overseas. The information presented in Force Of Nature has been developed for the education and entertainment of the reader by providing a sequence of historical events WITH COMMENTARY. Force Of Nature presents THE WHOLE TRUTH FROM AN INDEPENDENT PERSPECTIVE ! Force Of Nature is TOTALLY INDEPENDENT of any trade association or business operating within the Green Space Industry. The commentary expressed in Force Of Nature, even though from an INDEPENDENT PERSPECTIVE, may not reflect those of everyone in the Green Space Industry. Force Of Nature may sometimes be very irreverent, and even appear to be Anti Environment, it is, in fact, simply a strong advocate FOR the Modern Green Space Industry. However, this position has not precluded Force Of Nature from criticizing the Green Space Industry itself, when appropriate. The events, characters, companies, and organizations, depicted in this document are not always fictitious. Any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, may not be coincidental. All document excerpts and pictures contained in Force Of Nature were found somewhere on the Internet. These documents and pictures are in the public domain, serving one of the following purposes : archive, education, promotion, publicity, or press release.

Force Of Nature INSPIRES people to believe that ENVIRONMENTAL TERRORISM can be STOPPED ! Norah G is an acronym for the stable of anonymous producers and writers that contribute to this e–newsletter and have now replaced Mr. Gathercole. They consist of people from the following industries : Distribution, Fertilizer, Golf, Lawn Care, Manufacturing, Municipal, Nursery, and Orchard. Many of these people are leaders in their own industries. Anonymity is essential in view of the constant threat of reprisals at every level except perhaps death. Force Of Nature is the instrument of National Organization Responding Against Huje that seek to TERRORIZE, HARM, and THREATEN the Green Space Industry (NORAHG). Huje is a term used for Enviro Maniac Activists that routinely concoct FEAR MONGERING, FRAUDULENT LIES, MISCONCEPTIONS, COERCION, THREATS, DECEPTIONS, TERROR, and PARANOID CONSPIRACIES that are DESIGNED to SCAM and DECEIVE the public into believing that families are in some NON–EXISTENT danger with conventional pest control products. Huje also SCAM and DECEIVE Government Officials into the NEEDLESS, SENSELESS, and MALICIOUS prohibition of FEDERALLY LEGAL, SCIENTIFICALLY SAFE, TOTALLY IRREPLACEABLE, and ABSOLUTELY INDISPENSABLE conventional pest control products.

Force Of Nature is the brainchild of William H. Gathercole and his entourage. Mr. Gathercole is a principal FOUNDER of the Modern Professional Lawn Care Industry in BOTH Ontario and Quebec. He holds a degree in Horticulture from the UNIVERSITY OF GUELPH, and another pure and applied science degree from McGILL UNIVERSITY. He has worked in virtually all aspects of the Green Space Industry, including GOLF, PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE, and CHEMICAL INDUSTRY, and has served in public affairs, workplace safety, and environmental compliance. Mr. Gathercole has supervised, consulted, programmed, and/or overseen the successful and safe execution of HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of pest control applications in the urban landscape. He has trained, instructed, and consulted with THOUSANDS of turf managers and technicians. Mr. Gathercole has also been an agricultural agronomist. For many years, Mr. Gathercole was a contributing columnist for TURF & Recreation Magazine, Canada’s Turf and Grounds Maintenance Authority. Mr. Gathercole is now retired from Force Of Nature, although his name continues to appear as the founder. Mr. Gathercole is personally credited for crafting the Golf Industry Exception Status, that endures to this day. He is also the creator of the signs that are now used for posting after application. His vast knowledge of our long journey with Environmental Issues is UNDENIABLE ― hopefully ! For FIFTEEN YEARS, the strategies designed and implemented by Mr. Gathercole and his colleagues guaranteed the control of Environmental Terror for the entire Modern Green Space Industry across Canada. Mr. Gathercole’s involvement in Environmental Issues reached a fevered pitch in the 1990s, when he orchestrated, with his colleagues, legal action against the Forces of Environmental Evil in the Town of Hudson, Quebec. Mr. Gathercole is the ONLY TRUE RELIABLE WITNESS of the Hudson Affair.

Mr. Gathercole and his entourage have followed the evolution of ENVIRONMENTAL TERRORISM for over a quarter century. Through Force Of Nature, Enviro Maniac Activist Huje are identified on the basis of their statements, activities, affiliations, and whereabouts. Even though each Enviro Maniac Culprit is a misguided adversary, each still deserves our respect. The use of the terms Maniac, Culprit, Terrorist, or Basterd are not accusations of any legal wrong doing. Force Of Nature is simply holding Enviro Maniac Activists accountable for conspiring to change public policies that TERRORIZE, HARM, and THREATEN the Green Space Industry. Their pretentious prohibitionist rants have created LOSS OF REVENUES, BUSINESS FAILURES, BANKRUPTCY, and UNEMPLOYMENT, inflicting DESPAIR and DESTITUTION for THOUSANDS of hapless victims throughout the Green Space Industry. The DEPRAVED INDIFFERENCE of Maniac Culprit Terrorist Basterd Huje is viewed as a form of TERROR, HARM, and THREAT against the Green Space Industry.
